Hi All,

I've just started playing around with makenl.  I downloaded v3.5.0 from
sourceforge (https://sourceforge.net/projects/makenl/files/makenl) and
compiled it on the Pi.

However it doesn't seem to allow -Unpublished- as a phone number:

MakeNL 3.5.0 (Linux) compiled with GNU C on Aug 16 2021 18:49:33
No directory for output file specified -- using '/tmp/master'
Cmdline: makenl "node.ctl"
Using 'node.ctl' in '/home/pi'
Begin processing 'node.664' -- 11:49, Tuesday, September 7, 2021
,664,Northern_Realms,Binbrook_ON,Jay_Harris,-Unpublished-,300,CM,INA:bbs.nrbbs.
net,IBN
node.ctl -- Invalid phone number -- '-Unpublished-'
Fatal error(s) caused file 'node.ctl' to be rejected
Fatal error in node.ctl
MakeNL finished (rc=255)

If I change -Unpublished- to just 0 or a bunch of random numbers, it appears
to run ok and compiles the node, which can then be ingested by net-l.ctl and so on.  Is there a setting I need to change to allow the use of -Unpublished-?
